CCE launches Oceans SDK

A CCE product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Dec 10, 2008

CCE has announced the launch of Oceans SDK, a technology solution designed to connect enterprise applications to CAD data assets.

Oceans SDK provides access to product data stored in CAD files via a single C++ API for all major CAD formats.

It supports Catia v4, Catia v5, Unigraphics, Solidworks, Solid Edge, Pro/Engineer, Autodesk Inventor, Parasolid, Iges and Step data formats.

Oceans SDK does not require a license of the CAD system to access its data.

Enterprise applications deployed today use innovative software architectures such as Saas to bring the benefits of optimised and holistic workflow management applications to a wider audience within the extended enterprise.

The same applications, however, are hampered by restrictive architectures and licensing requirements that prevent them from fully exploiting the CAD data assets for the benefit of everyone in the product lifecycle.

According to the recently published 'Collaboration and Interoperability Market Report 2008' from Longview Advisors, use of 3D CAD data in downstream applications is increasing, with predictions of further increase as 'it seems there is a continued slow migration to complete reliance on 3D CAD data in product design and engineering'.

CCE believes this is the democratisation of 3D data in the enterprise.

The company said Oceans SDK is the ideal middleware for any enterprise application wanting to integrate 3D CAD and is well suited for products such as product data management systems, product lifecycle management systems, enterprise resource planning systems, manufacturing resource planning systems, web-based catalogues, sales configuration systems, and so on.
